Mission

To bring life-changing community soccer programs to homeless, refugee and underserved populations. By creating safe places to play, supplying caring coaches and coordinating social services, we build our participants’ personal capacity to achieve improved education and employment outcomes.

Bottom Line for Portland

In its first year, Street Soccer USA-Portland established five free, life-changing soccer programs that served 236 people from Portland’s homeless, refugee and underserved communities. It also provided 95 individual social service referrals and improved the confidence, self-esteem and resiliency of 92 percent of participants.

“Street Soccer Portland has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I’ve had the opportunity to see teammates come from homelessness to being housed, independent, enrolled in college, employed and find hope and joy.”

—Collin, Homeless World Cup program participant
